I wouldn't leave large amounts of leaves on a bed/border that had planting which would succumb to rotting at the crown @BrennaBee . A thick layer...
Willows will generally stay pretty green if they're wet enough, but it also depends on where you are and how you're growing it @George kyriacou....
It's never usually a good idea to put pots/planters directly on grass if you have something in them you want to keep. Apart from the weed problem...
I wouldn't over cosset them. Just move them against a house wall if you have rough weather. You end up with weak plants otherwise. They'll adjust...
The problem with lavender here @MrsC2024 is - it grows very well through summer, with a lot of lush foliage due to the weather. Then it can be...
Another cloudy start, but gradually brightening. O'night low was 5 degrees [7 just now at approx. 8.15 am] with a predicted high of about 11 or...
Yes- not sure how viable the lower corms will be once you remove that top one, although it's mainly the invasive montbretia that's more...
They tend to produce the viable corms at the top @hailbopp , so the ones you've got out might be the ones you want anyway. How well they 'take'...
I saw two little long tailed tits on my walk yesterday. In a bare tree right by the pavement - a bit like @strongylodon's pic but slightly less...
It takes a fair bit of permanent water to kill them. Even in persistently wet areas of the lower slopes of our hills here, they manage, but that's...
Had a look at your Pieris @CostasK - looking good. It's always a pain when you have to shift things, at any time of year, but I've had a similar...
That looks fine @CostasK . It'll be a while before the foliage spreads enough and fills the pot surface, so you shouldn't have too much of a...
What size/maturity are the plants @MrsC2024 ? It isn't always necessary to prune younger hydrangeas at all, but generally it's late winter/early...
Hi @Pipcas - what do you mean by 'a bit of wild grass' ? Is this for a domestic lawn? Often it isn't necessary to thoroughly uproot the ground in...
A murky, damp, cloudy start here, with some pink bits between the clouds thrown in as well as it lightened up just before 8am. O'night low was 10...
Yes - that's often the problem here @hydrogardener - the rough weather spoils the show!
Ehhh...think I'm a bit far away @shiney.....:heehee: Not sure what I'll do today. Got quite a bit done yesterday as it stayed dry apart from a...
Just keep ticking over as well as you can @Michael Hewett . :smile: We're here if you need us x
Stay safe @Michael Hewett. I'm looking forward to seeing all your improvements and have enjoyed your renovation progress in the garden.Look...
I lifted a dahlia a few days ago. It wasn't going to produce anything else. It isn't vital to have frosts hitting them before lifting and storing....
